Hiya All,

I am a ftm (third pregnancy though) and am 21+6.

So, like the title says, I'm wanting some advice or to know if anyone had anything similar.

At my scan at 13+3 my cervix was 51mm.

I then had a scan at 17+5 due to some nerve pain and my cervix was noted as 46mm.

Yesterday I finally had my anatomy scan and pretty much everything seemed fine with my sweet baby, however my cervix was noted as 36mm.

I called my midwife (in Australia) and she didn't seem concerned with the change but my official appointment for the results isn't until next week.

Should I be concerned with this change in the shortening of my cervix?

Thank you in advance!

I just want to rant about the argument I consistently see that it's a fantasy world, not real life.

We all know this but what I find baffling is the amount of readers that don't realise every single piece of media is a social commentary based either on current or historical affairs and how the author views morality and any actions that fall within the scale of morality.

People love to say these are Fae and they don't share our morality... except in SJMs case...they do. Otherwise we wouldn't be pushed to dislike the villains, Tamlin, rhysand at times, feyre or any other character. The guidance we're given on the bad characters is based solely in the real world we exist withins moral compass or code.

Otherwise we wouldn't believe Beron was racist for killing Jesminda, we wouldn't believe that both Feyre, Tamlin, Rhysand, Cassian, Nesta or any other character doesn't have abusive moments within their behaviour which is what the book pushes.

We wouldn't have racism reflected in the human vs Fae dislike or the treatment of lesser Fae.

There wouldn't be FGM comparisons with the wing mutilation of the female Illyrians.

I just truly can't comprehend how so many readers don't see that this series and all her work is rooted in the moral code we as modern humans follow.

While I understand that some people read for enjoyment and not to analyse, which I have no qualms with, I do wonder then why those people partake in discussion on analysis when they aren't fully aware of medias impact and how our experiences as people and therefore artists then impacts the work produced.
